Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Child 1981.117.25 The portrait depicts two girls of high caste in traditional skirts and fine jewelry. The bracelets, earings, and necklaces are of tortoise, trochus, and other shells. Yagourough carries a flower in her pierced ear as it’s common for Yapese to carry items such as flowers, cigarettes, or chewing gum wrapping there. Their lips are stained a scarlet color by the juice of betel nuts, mint leaves, and ground coral lime, a common stimulant in Oceania. Mio is also featured in Jacoulet’s print PREMIER AMOUR.
